Hi there,

I would say it's a CSS stylesheet and you probably did too

but I see here it's not: https://teamtreehouse.com/forum/with-an-stylesheet-we-can-change-the-look-of-an-entire-site-with-just-one-file

It's an external stylesheet!!! I don't agree - it could also be an internal stylesheet, as well. Confusing. IMO

but could you change the look of an entire site with an internal stylesheet? You could change the look of one page, but you would have to duplicate the styles on every single page if you wanted to change the whole site. With an external stylesheet you only need a single file.

also CSS Stylesheet is a bit redundant, CSS stands for cascading style sheet so that would make Cascading style sheet stylesheet.

The question was "an entire site". That does not imply "many pages" Could be a one page scroll site.

Just sayin ....
